Description:
The Tcl man page needs to be updated to 

rule 7 doesn't state that when 'name' is missing the
dollar-sign (which is now bare) is treated as a
literal.

example:

% puts "$ $ $"
$ $ $

Here's a patch that clarifies the empty variable name
issue.  Further clarifications may also be needed
concerning non-Latin characters, depending on how
Tcl Bug 4085687 is resolved.
